Title - I too had an MBA Author - Sambhav Khetarpal Genre - Fiction Humour Publisher - Horizon Books ISBN - 978-81-9343-8800 I too had an MBA is jolly good novel with no concept but having said that this book is far better than the rather contemporary novel because this book would keep you captivated till the end. Though the book came with a bookmark, I never got an option to use it since I read the book in one go. What I liked the most about the book is the presence of funny references from page to page and can make a great reference material for those who are doing the stand up comedies out there and were run out of ideas. But beware, this book is copyrighted and hence you cannot use those jokes and PJs at will. However you may try moderating it and present it in your own style like how bollywood copies kollywood and vice-versa. I am not adding Hollywood here because it is out of the league. Author makes his narrative via a character called Luv Khurana who is not a...

Title - Behind The Scenes Author - Sharmistha Shenoy Genre - Thriller Fiction Format - Kindle Edition ASIN -  B0771NXNXX I have read the previous novels of Sharmistha Shenoy who has made an interesting character called Vikram Rana. In this novel, the detective Vikram Rana accidentally gets dragged into a murder case of a famous actor in West Bengal. What he did not knew by then is that it would turn out to be a maze which requires investigation on so many other people who were believed to be a suspect only to find out about a startling truth in the end. The novel is a perfect read for those who love mystery and thriller and the characters were used really well by the author making it interesting which I would say would the real success to this. Having said that I am not waiting for the paperback to be released as well. The story would keep you guessing from the beginning till the revelation is made by Vikram Rana which is by far the best and one of the most unusual story ...

Title - I Tagged Her In My Heart Author - Anuj Tiwari Genre - Fiction Publisher - Rupa Publications ISBN - 978-81-291-4956-5 A beautiful novel based on real life incidents(as claimed by the author)and I feel this is the life of the author himself since his description in the beginning and the story aptly coincide with each other. The story revolves around 5 main characters nick named VAADA though the nick name is revealed only in the end. The story is about the life of 4 friends Arjun, Adrika, Anushka and Ved. Anushka alone was a year senior while the other three studied together. The story talks in a very subtle way as to what transpires in their life which includes Love, Relationship, Friendship among others. What I liked the most is the way author has described the story line which was clear and crisp which would catch your attention from the beginning till the end. The disappointments faced both by Arjun and Adrika makes them emerge stronger later. Initially I t...

Title - The Surrogate Lies Author - Shantanu Munshi Genre - Comedy(Fiction) Publisher - Half Baked Beans ISBN - 978-93-84314-77-4 The book is a story about how different people from different walks of life meet and go on a journey. Though the book hasn't got a logic, which according to me is justified, since it does not need one, the book will make you sit captivated till the end. It revolves around 4 main characters - Paul, a writer ; Hazare, a stranger ; Raj, a driver and Ben, a mysterious foreigner. What brings them together is what you need to find out reading the book. Though the book claims to be of comedy, I did not get much of laughter. May be I did not got hold of the tiny tit bits though in some places, I did laugh. The book wouldn't disappoint you. If you are looking for a change from your routine genres, this book is a good choice. The book is available on Amazon

It may not be interesting to all but having said that this is not an ordinary story for sure. Kudos to the Author who dries the point in a subtle way that love does not arise out of pity but because of pure emotions. Peehu reminds of girl we meet in our day to d...
